The invention relates to a method for controlling a magnetic rail brake device (1) of a rail vehicle, which device contains at least one solenoid (6) of a magnet rail brake (8), said solenoid being fed from an source of electrical energy (2) via an electrical connection (4), wherein upon a magnet rail brake activation signal the electrical connection (4) between the source of electrical energy (2) and the at least one solenoid (6) of the magnet rail brake (8) is established and upon a magnet rail brake de-activation signal same is disconnected, in order to excite the at least one solenoid (6) to generate a magnetic force or de-excite said at least one solenoid (6). According to the invention a) upon the magnet rail brake activation signal, the electrical connection (4) between the source of electrical energy (2) and the at least one solenoid (6) of the magnet rail brake (8), once established, is disconnected and re-established in a fixed sequence of cycles, or b) upon the magnet rail brake de-activation signal, the electrical connection (4) between the source of electrical energy (2) and the at least one solenoid (6) of the magnet rail brake (8), once disconnected, is established and disconnected again in a fixed sequence of cycles.
